Chad Gable recently spoke with Rolling Stone to promote Sunday’s WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view event. Here are the highlights.
On his main roster debut: It was pretty rewarding. We were pretty nervous. Back in those moments behind the curtain before you walk out, you get really nervous. You wonder if you’ll hear crickets when you come out. You don’t know if the people who are watching Smackdown or Raw are watching NXT on a regular basis. They may have seen it here and there, but you don’t know if they’ll know you. So it’s a little bit nerve-racking. Once our music hit though, all the nerves went away. Once you get through the curtain, you just feel it. The crowd responded great. We were really happy with it.
On his chemistry with Jason Jordan: It was instant. That’s the craziest part about this, it was definitely meant to be. Things happen for a reason. We both believe that. It was just immediate from day 1. We were on the same page, we just knew. We’ve been so fortunate, because I can’t imagine that all teams are like that. I’m sure most work a long time to get that sort of chemistry, and we just had it. We were very fortunate.
